I saw the subject caption on a comedy site, on a picture of Frodo and Sam Gangi hugging. Watching the 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy, I was captivated by the way in which male hobbits treated each other, with all of the hugging and verbal expressions of affection. It would be nice if males in western culture could treat each other like that. I think that the feeling is there sometimes, but the homophobic culture makes straight guys hide their affection for each other. I don't think women have to hide their affection for each other so much, because western society is only male homophobic. Face it, straight guys love to watch Lesbians in porno films. Maybe its just countries under the English Victorian influence though. Russian guys seem to hug and kiss. Greek guys dance with each other. French generals present medals to their heroes with a moist kiss on each cheek. So why don't guys express affection for each other normally, in the English speaking world?



Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For brothers to dwell together in unity!
Ps 133:1 NASB
